Instructions
 

  • If your boneless roast is not frozen, wrap in parchment paper and place in freezer for 2 hours to freeze it slightly. Cut pork with a very sharp knife into thin slices, approximately 1/8 inch thick. Place sliced pork in a large bowl.
  • Add sugar to the bowl.
  • Combine Shao Hsing rice wine, dark soy sauce, fish sauce,
  • sesame oil, ground pepper, and five spice powder in a small bowl or cup. Mix well with a spoon.
  • Pour mixture over sliced pork and sugar.
  • Mix well to get all sliced pork coated with the sauce. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Prepare 4 to 5 sheets of parchment paper the size of a jelly roll pan (15.5in x 10.5in).
  • Spread out 6 to 8 slices of marinated meat onto parchment paper.
  • Place a large piece of shrink wrap over the meat. Using a rolling pin, roll over meat to smoothen and even out the thin slices of meat. Remove shrink wrap. Repeat until all meat is used up.
  • Transfer sheets of meat to jelly roll pans and bake in a 250°F (120°C) oven for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and dab excess juices with paper towels.
  • Increase oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Return trays of meat to the oven and grill for approximately 8 minutes. Meat burns easily at this stage. Adjust time accordingly.
  • Remove pans from oven. Flip slices of meat over with a pair of tongs. If meat is too dry, brush some vegetable oil over the meat before flipping. Also brush some vegetable oil onto the meat after flipping.
  • Return pans to the oven for another approximately 8 minutes. Remove and cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Store in sir tight container and consume within a week.
